Connect Quickbooks and QlikView

Connecting QuickBooks and QlikView for a company could enable the transfer of financial data from QuickBooks into QlikView for advanced analysis and reporting. This connection would require establishing secure data flows and mapping relevant fields, supporting more detailed business intelligence and financial insights based on accounting records managed in QuickBooks.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between Quickbooks and QlikView around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect Quickbooks and QlikView?

A company that uses both Quickbooks and QlikView could benefit from connecting the two systems to allow data to flow automatically between their financial management and business intelligence platforms. This connection could help avoid issues that arise when data must be manually entered or transferred, such as duplicate entries, inconsistencies between records, and decisions based on outdated or incomplete information. Without such a connection, staff may need to repeatedly export and import data, increasing the risk of errors and consuming valuable time that could be spent on analysis or other work. The types of data that could be exchanged between these systems include financial transactions, account balances, expense reports, and other accounting data from Quickbooks, which could then be used in QlikView for advanced reporting, dashboarding, and data visualization. The specific data points and the direction of data flow would depend on what each system makes available through its API, and what is needed for the company's reporting and operational requirements. What can actually be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API, and is determined per situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what Quickbooks and QlikView make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
